Upper Tolerance
Remark
The 11/16 is the only thing that will be affected. The three won't go up or down when we add 1/64 so we should just work with the 11/16. We need only add 11/16 and 1/64 together to see what the upper range is. Later on we can add 3 into the mix.
Solution
<u>Upper Limit</u>
Now change the 11/16 into 64. Multiply numerator and denominator or 11/16 by 4
Which results in
With a final result for the fractions of 45/64
So the upper tolerance = 3 45/64
<u>Lower Tolerance</u>
Just follow the same steps as you did for the upper tolerance except you subtract 1/64 like this.
Your answer should be 3 and 43/64
